Well, the ports should be working against -CURRENT, so what you say is
not entirely true.
Second thing, yeah, it is cpumask_t going away, so someone needs  to
sit there, check what usage of cpumask_t was done and replace with
proper code.
It seems usual port maintenance due by the maintainer IMHO.

I'm not entirely sure how bumping __FreeBSD_version may help right now.
